"For the past two decades, scientists have called for national IAQ standards and laws to be established, but so far, little action has been taken. The approach to indoor air contrasts sharply with outdoor air, for which quality is regulated and monitored and compliance with regulations is enforced." science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

HEADS UP, Mon Valley… H2S is also crazy high at @HealthAllegheny’s Liberty monitor. Today’s the 8th straight day of exceedances there (more from us on that soon). Yet…Nothing from @HealthAllegheny on what’s causing the issue/being done to fix it.

@HealthAllegheny it’s been 8 days of stench/exceedances. People are suffering. Please provide a public update.
It also totally reeks of coke oven gasses inside my house right now. Irritating my nose. And I have had hepa filters blasting all night but they can’t clean gasses easily. So we suffer with no remedy.
